Re: Very rare NYCT/MaBSTOA destination readings roll signs (lots of them)

None of these links work today (2017); but I have to wonder if any updates to 'batwing' side signs for MaBSTOA routes in Manhattan were made after that dated Dec. 13, 1966 (as sliced and diced individual side signs of most routes attest; one of which reads '2 - 5th & Madison via Lenox'). Of all the pics I've seen of batwinged buses on the then-101A route, none of them have '101A - 3rd-Lex-Lenox Aves' side signs. That same seller has four sections of a post-1969 (printed c.1971?) side sign from the non-batwinged 5303 class, by which time the Fifth/Madison/Lenox 2 was gone; unfortunately the sections now being sold don't include the Third/Lexington/Lenox 101A route that began operations on the same day that Fifth/Madison/Lenox 2 was discontinued.
